  • Batrachocottus multiradiatus L. S. Berg, 1907
  • Batrachocottus nikolskii (L. S. Berg, 1900) (Fat sculpin)
  • Batrachocottus talievi Sideleva, 1999
gollark: "Pluck it out" is also easy to say, but it's actually even harder.
gollark: "Find useful stuff" also sounds pleasantly easy, but it's *not*. Even a human reading a repository or paper may struggle to find "useful" bits; reasoning about the relevance of a new set of information or methods for a project is a difficult general intelligence task.
gollark: I mean, "list of AI" is probably easy enough, you could just... search github using some keywords, and maybe research papers.
gollark: Just because you can describe a task in a sentence or so doesn't mean you can give a description clear and detailed enough to think about programming it.
gollark: Early attempts at AI back in the last millennium tried to create AIs by giving them logical reasoning abilities and a large set of facts. This didn't really work; they did some things, hit the limits of the facts they had, and didn't do anything very interesting.
